Hi,

I have upgraded to Fedora 22 and lost my nice theme I had on Fedora 20.

I thought I had done everything but it still did not work.


I found this and got it going:

http://jadelinux.com/fedoratips/fixgrub2.html

What I did not do was this:


echo "GRUB_THEME=\"/boot/grub2/themes/system/theme.txt\"" >>
/etc/default/grub

What does this ACTUALLY do, as I had already put the "GRUB_THEME=" in
/etc/default/grub!?

Thanks

Probably gets read in to build grub.cfg and subsequently any required boot image / initrd
